Losing Lucian McKenzie, the Prince of her heart and
discovering her true identity has made Elena Watkins' life almost unbearable.
However, new trials will test the 17 year-old's strength and push her to limits
she didn’t think were possible.

Only a mysterious offer from Blake Leaf, the Rubicon and a
dragon predestined for evil, reveals there may be a light at the end of Elena’s
dark tunnel.

With the life she thought she knew crashing down around her,
Elena will have to face a monumental decision about the fate of Paegeia. She
can either make peace with Blake’s demands or try once again to unravel the
Queen’s secrets that lie deep within her dragon, Tanya La Frey’s, heart.

The third heart pounding novel in The Dragonian Series by
Adrienne Wood

I WAS BACK INSIDE that cave, the one where Lucian lost his
life. I looked around but I knew he wasn’t going to come for me, he was dead.
Then what the hell am I still doing here, staring at a psycho who claims to be
my dragon?

“You really thought that I was your dragon, Elena?
Seriously?” He laughed that sadistic laugh that made my insides twist and turn
in all directions.

“Get away from me you freak,” I spat.

His hand connected hard against my cheek, it burned and my
ears rang for a couple of seconds.

“I’m not a freak, I’m a patriot.”

“Patriot?” I laughed as loud as I could. “You are a
murderer!”

Another strike. The Elementals clucked like crazy, they
could feel the danger all around them and must have felt helpless. It was
beginning to drive me insane.

“Stop it you mongrels, or I’ll skin you alive,” Paul yelled
and for some reason they listened. He looked back down at me again. The point
of his knife was close to my throat. “It’s funny how everyone around you knows
who you are, Elena, except you.”

“What are you talking about?”

He laughed again. “I guess they like to play mind games with
you, like to keep you in the dark.” His eyes met mine. “Some friends you have.”

“Stop that, you know nothing about my friends, or what
friendship is.”

“Why? Because they all end up betraying you at the end of the
day. Take it from me; it’s better to live in the dark. You can do whatever you
want, be whatever you want. Your friends don’t give a shit about you, and
neither does your dragon.”

“You are not my dragon,” I yelled again.

“Oh, I know that, and for some sick, twisted reason your
true dragon wasn’t bothered one bit that I claimed you as my rider.”

“You are lying.”

“Am I?” He looked around. “Then where is your dragon, Elena?
Why isn’t it here?” The Elementals’ clucking noises drowned the rest of Paul’s
words. I could see his lips moving, but their sounds of pure panic drilled
through my brain, making it impossible to hear what he had to say. It grew
louder and louder and then a cannon shot rang through their cries.

I jumped up in bed, soaked with sweat. It was like, the
gazillionth time I’d had that dream. I could still hear their clucking and it
made me feel like I was going crazy, but still, no tears came. My heart felt as
if it was bouncing inside my ears. No matter how many times I had the same
dream, I could never hear Paul’s last words as the Elemental sounds kept
interrupting him. But there was one thing that I knew was a lie, I didn’t own a
dragon. I was a dragon, and that was one piece of information I still struggled
to deal with.

Adrienne Woods was born and raised in South Africa, where
she still lives with her husband and two beautiful little girls. She always
knew she was going to be a writer, but it only started to really happen about
four years ago. In her free time―if
she gets any because moms don’t really have free time―she loves to spend it with friends, whether it’s
a girl’s
night out, or just watching a movie. She’s a very chilled person. Her
writing career started with Firebolt, book one in the Dragonian series. There
will be four books in total, including a further two to three books, which will
be stories that take place within the Dragonian series. Her other series, Dream
Casters, will be released mid-2015. She also writes in different genres, and
her woman’s fiction, The Pregnancy Diaries, will be published under a
pseudonym. And then, she has a paranormal series by the name of the Aswang
series, which will consist of about ten novels. And if that wasn’t enough,
there is another series, Guardians of Monsters, which will be released in 2016.

Vibrant, scale swathed wings… Abilities that can be harnessed by a chosen
few… Dragons…

All this may seem like old news, but for seventeen year-old Elena Watkins the
world of Paegeia is not finished revealing all its secrets. During a summer
break intended for relaxation, she discovers that her harrowing adventure to
retrieve the King of Lion sword wasn’t the destiny foretold by the cryptic
Viden, a dragon with the ability to see a person’s true fate. The words inked
onto the page of the mysterious Book of Shadows remains black and Elena must
return to DragoniaAcademy to discover their
true meaning.

Upon her return to the magnificent castle she has to face a challenge of
a different kind, keeping her boyfriend Lucian McKenzie, the Prince of Tith and
love of her life, away from the dangerous new student, Paul Sutton. As a
Wyvern, Paul has made it his mission to claim Elena as his rider but he is
proving to be more perilous than at first glance.

Everyone knew that Wyverns were bad news, and just as evil as the
darkness that lurked inside Blake Leaf, the Rubicon forced to fight against his
inner nature every day. But Elena can see a small light lurking in the
darkness, a destiny still unfulfilled; to prove that Wyverns can be
claimed.

Will
Lucian’s dark secret about Wyverns and Elena’s need to prove their true nature
cause their love to be torn apart? And which of Elena’s friends will be
sacrificed this time if she is wrong?

Synopsis

After eighteen-year-old Carrie Jacobson discovers she was a witch in a previous life, she seeks to reawaken the past part of her soul. With the help of an eccentric enchantress and a boy who is more than he seems, Carrie succeeds and is spellbound by the memories of her life in the 1600s. She reverts to her bewitching, more volatile form and sets out to break a curse she cast long ago. If she succeeds, she’ll unleash a powerful force, the likes of which has not been witnessed in centuries.

With Tree’s help, will Carrie be able to resist the allure of her new powers? Or will she plunge into the deep end and give into them?

Rebekkah Ford grew up in a family that dealt with the paranormal. Her parents’ Charles and Geri Wilhelm were the directors of the UFO Investigator’s League in Fairfield, Ohio, back in the 1970s. They also investigated ghost hauntings and Bigfoot sightings in addition to UFO’s. Growing up in this type of environment and having the passion for writing is what drove Rebekkah at an early age to write stories dealing with the paranormal. Her fascination with the unknown is what led her to write the Beyond the Eyes trilogy and Tangled Roots.

Rebekkah has an irreverent sense of humor, adores coffee, and yummy food makes her happy. She loves books, history, antiques, animals, connecting with her fans and other authors, and watching her favorite TV shows.

And Donovan Donley wants nothing more than to knock Layla off her princess pedestal. He hates her stuck up attitude and her soft, tempting lips. He especially hates that her father is his coach.

But he’s fine with their arrangement—act horrible to each other during the day, attack each other naked at night. It works.

But one night changes everything. When Layla doesn’t show, and Donovan’s cold bed stays empty, the lies he tells himself to keep Layla out of his mind aren’t enough to keep him from missing her. And needing her. Something he promised himself would never happen.

The white flags in their prank war have been lowered but their high stakes battle has just begun.

Hannah
Livingston has the most infamous stalker that ever existed- Satan. She spent
her sixth birthday with the Brethren, fighting an apocalyptic war that sent the
Dark Prince back to Hell, and the rest of her life wondering if he’d be back
for her soul someday. She needn’t wonder any longer.

Gabriel Seeker, Brethren Protector, spends his days and nights rescuing kids
from sex traffickers and protecting their lives from further damage. He knows
all too well the nightmarish world they’ve been stolen into, and it’s gotten
harder to keep secret his own past horrors.

Hannah and Gabriel have always gotten along, first as friends, then as
co-workers. She manages his life and he protects hers. A perfect, symbiotic
relationship, so it would seem, until suppressed feelings for each other
surface and forever change the landscape of their lives. Stricken with PTSD,
the determined angel seeks to protect the woman he loves from Satan’s greedy
and insidious clutches.

Deceit and seduction, desire and repression, collide in this epic, immortal
story of love, duty, and sacrifice.

Among the sinners, there are those who seek
redemption and those that are lost to the notion. Those who believe what’s done
to them should be done to the next generation of poor, unfortunate souls, and
those who fight against the vicious cycle with every fiber of their being.

Gabriel Seeker, Brethren Protector, lies
somewhere in between. Grappling with a tragic past of his own, his mission is
to ensure that the most vulnerable of our society, our children, are protected
from the evil that would exploit them. It’s an uphill battle sometimes, and his
latest task is the most daunting yet, proving to test him beyond measure.

With Hannah Livingston’s birthday looming ever
closer, Satan has made his intentions quite clear. Change is coming, powers are
growing, and evil is stalking its prey. One can prepare for the worst, but
never knows what the worst truly is
until it happens.
